By implementing some form of configuration management, Ceph administrators will be able to see clearly what changes have been made to the Ansible playbooks before running them.
A recommended approach would be to store your Ceph Ansible configuration in a Git repository; this will allow you to track changes and implement some form of change control either by monitoring Git commits or by forcing people to submit merge requests into the master branch.
